I had my R33 broken into on the 2nd of Jan in Melbourne CBD, they seemed to know exactly how to get in as the actual lock wasn't touched, they used a method that I won't go into as I don't want to help others do the same. They stole my stereo and amp, luckily neither were worth very much, but to get the stereo out they did break the dash board.

Any last night I was at Melb High and there was another R33 Skyline which I noticed had the same markings on it that indicated it had been broken into in the same fashion and looking in the window it was also missing its Stereo.

So using my powers of deduction I'm tipping that these two aren't isolated cases, has anyone else had their skyline broken into recently in Melb.

I'm sure there must be a way to stop how they are getting into the car, if anyone knows what I am talking about and has already figured out how to prevent it can they please PM me. An alarm doesn't seem to stop them.

JAPCAB has the same thing happen to him in the city near the childrens hospital. They also took the stereo, and broke in through the left siee door lock. Id advise everyone to have a 'microwave radar sensor' in there alarm, that way if any sort of motion is detected in the car it will release the ear piercing signal and deter thiefs. This technology is used in convertibles when left open. But work great in closed enviroments too.

also.. if anyone catches the theif that is on this rampage, PM, ill be right over to break this ****suckers nose.

Thanks.

    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
